promotion time for your apps

Monkey Targets Forums/Android/promotion time for your apps

this is just a thought i was having and i wondered if it was the norm and anyone else was doing it.If you release a demo then release the full version about a week later will you get more promotion time on your app rather than release them both at the same time.By promotion time i mean that it will be shown in the new apps section twice over a couple of week period rather than just the once.

how about this with 2-3 weeks interval

1) lite
2) update (lite)
3) paid
4) update (both)
5) paid price cut
6) update (only paid)
7) paid new content via IAP
8) pay adMob and advertise
9) paid price cut
10) new version (HD / Retro etc)
...

Kind of fails the 'Golden Rule' though, doesn't it?

What if everyone did this? More work for everyone, and no gain for anyone.
